unable to configure json-c

[jay...@stratusoft.com]

Hey, 

  I am trying to configure and install json-c library on the platform which has a POSIX-like environment. It is not linux OS.

I run following command and getting erorr:

configure --prefix=/%mkt2#m2_d03/Stratusoft/ENC_TEST/json-c/libjson

checking for a BSD-compatible install... /system/gnu_library/bin/ginstall -c

checking whether build environment is sane... configure: error: unsafe absolute working directory name

what would be the issue?

GNU autoconf has an explicit check for characters that might be she'll meta-characters, including '#' (i.e. start of comment).  Try using a path that doesn't have that.
